I shot these while 4 wheelin' in the Santa Cruz mtns. Just some experimental X-file work so to speak.

The Fandango forest "mood" Is what I was after.

I like the first one.
Don't care for the other two but its just my taste and not anything you did wrong.
Because of the foreground, I think I'd like the second if it had the same treatment as the first.
You definitly got mood though, now that I look again, I'm not sure the orange sky matches the rest of the 'mood' in #2.

Rick, that first shot is very nice. Creepy and mysterious. I think it would help to give it a levels adjustment to get the whites up some more.
The second I do not like. I don't care for the treatment or the composition. the third is interesting and almost looks like a negative of the first.
Very good image that first one.

I really like #1 and 3.

The processing is over the top and fun, the images are "trippy" and odd, but well executed.

[Overbeyond]

The first is really good and I think the second would also have been had it not been given the treatment.

#1 for me. What it has that the second image doesn't (aside from all the processing) is the road/trail/path drawing the biewer into the image and keep the bottom from just being wasted frame space.

I don't care at all for the colors in #2 and it lacks that something to draw the viewer into the frame.

#3 just looks like a negative of #1 and I prefer the positive.
